I understand that advertising your software is pretty much required these days. And I have come to terms with the fact that if I’m using one piece of software from a company, while I’m using it, I’m going to see advertisements for other pieces of software by the same company. Thats pretty much life these days.
However.
If I am not currently using your software. Haven’t been using your software. And your software shouldn’t even be running in the background. And you start flashing popups on my screen advertising your other pieces of software. And then make it impossible to turn off those popups (never mind the malware that drives them)…..
….you have just ensured that not only will I be uninstalling the one piece by you that I paid for. I am also never ever again buying a piece of software by you and will be very aggressively recommending against your software to anyone who asks.
